-Diversification and enterprise -is in the family's blood. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:57 | |
-We had the chance to diversify, -to sell meat to the public... | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
-..because we had confidence -in the gardens and tea rooms. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
-We'd dealt with the relevant people -so we gave it a shot. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
-We sell cuts - -steaks, joints, mince and dice... | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
-..and the same again with the lamb. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
-The new venture is Welsh mutton. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
-That's been an interesting job -for us. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
-We sell in a mixture of places... | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-..the gardens, the farmer's markets -and local food festivals. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:30 | |

-Having a website and good broadband -and phone signal is so important. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:48 | |
-We're in a lovely part -of the world... | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
-..but there are -very few people around here. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
-We need to find new markets. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
-As farmers, -we always get the crumbs. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
-It's time for farmers -to get a larger slice of the cake. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
-We all work so hard. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:08 | |
-Maybe the Brexit business -will even things out... | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
-..and increase the value -of our produce... | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
-..especially the food we produce -in Wales. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
-This is Robert's first visit -to the Farm Shop and Deli Show. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |

-We're taking the mutton pies up. -It's a new venture for us. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:31 | |
-We want to give people at the event -a taste of our pies... | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
-..and follow up by selling the -mince and dice direct to pie makers. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:41 | |
-We're working hard -to sell the story behind the meat... | 0:03:41 | 0:03:46 | |
-..and selling a part of the farm to -them and the story that's behind it. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:52 | |
-There are over 450 exhibiters -at the NEC in Birmingham. | 0:03:55 | 0:04:01 | |
-This is the seventh show of its kind -aimed at specialist food producers. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:07 | |
-The show attracts customers -from farm shops, delis and cafes. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:14 | |

-Cywain has given Welsh producers -the opportunity to be here... | 0:04:20 | 0:04:24 | |
-..with the aim of adding value -and helping to promote the produce. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
-Cywain's aim is to help continue -the development of our clients. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
-Last year, we brought a crew of -producers like Rob Vaughan here... | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
-..to see how things worked. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
-Today, he has a day on a stand -to try and generate a new market. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
-We hope to help him -develop independently... | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
-..on the Welsh food and drink stand -just as Cwm Farm have done today. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
-They started with us and they're -here independently this year. | 0:04:55 | 0:05:00 | |
-How beneficial is a day like this? | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
-It's a real eye-opener for them. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
-They get the experience of trying -to sell directly to traders. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
-That's very different -from selling to customers. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
-It's an opportunity to create -new markets across Britain. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:19 | |
-As part of the experience, -they find out what's out there... | 0:05:20 | 0:05:24 | |
-..as competition. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:26 | |
-It's important to add value -to the produce... | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
-..it's important for farmers -to create new markets... | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
-..and we're here to help them do -that whatever the political climate. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
-Lowri and Gwyn -from Gwella near Aberystwyth... | 0:05:38 | 0:05:42 | |
-..have had the opportunity to -promote their new, unique produce. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:47 | |
-Not many producers -do what you're doing. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
-As far as we know, -we're the only people in Europe... | 0:05:52 | 0:05:57 | |
-..who cure lamb this way. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
-How much of a difference has this -added value made to your business? | 0:06:00 | 0:06:05 | |
-A lot. Before that, we were -just the same as everyone else. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:11 | |
-The lambs went to the abattoir -and that's the last we saw of them. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:16 | |
-We can now speak to our customers -and our markets directly... | 0:06:17 | 0:06:21 | |
-..to try and promote Welsh lamb. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
-Bryn, how much value -do you add to this produce? | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
-Three times - -we can improve its price threefold. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
-That's incredible. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:33 | |
-You can use the whole lamb, -from top to bottom. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
-You split the lamb in half, -remove all the bones... | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
-..roll it and cure it. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:44 | |
-It makes a huge difference. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
-You don't just use the hind cuts, -the best meat - you use the lot. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:51 | |
-One day, it could be a way of -selling young lambs to the market. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
-How important is a show like this -to your business? | 0:06:56 | 0:07:00 | |
-It's very important. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
-People attending this show will use -our products in their restaurants... | 0:07:02 | 0:07:09 | |
-..or farm shops. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
-It helps us -take our products further. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
-At the moment, we have -a geographical market of 40 miles. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:22 | |
-We want to move it further to -promote Welsh lamb further afield. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
-After travelling -from the Gwaun Valley... | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
-..what is Robert Vaughan's -impression of the show? | 0:07:34 | 0:07:38 | |
-How has your day been? | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
-Tiring but wonderful. There's such -a variety, it's incredible. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
-It's an eye-opener. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
-What response have you had? | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |

-Is the show what you expected? | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
-Totally different, blown away. -It's incredible. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:01 | |
-People in Wales need to have a look -at what happens over here. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:06 | |
-As well as exhibiting produce... | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
-..this three-day show offers -workshops, rewards new ideas... | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
-..and welcomes speakers to inspire -people working in the industry. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:18 | |
-How do you benefit -from attending these festivals? | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
-You meet people, you tell -your story, you give out tasters... | 0:08:23 | 0:08:27 | |
-..I like that one-to-one. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
-Four weeks ago we were at -an event in the Celtic Manor. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-We had international buyers -from all over the world. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
-We had Canadian and American -buyers wanting to buy our products. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:43 | |
-Canada have ordered enough salami -for 25 stores in Toronto. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:49 | |
-Our first export order for Cwm Farm -and we are just overwhelmed. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:54 | |
-Well done. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:56 | |
-These shows are important to get -more businesses talking to us. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:04 | |
-There is life outside Wales... | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
-..but it's too early to say how -much business we've done so far. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:12 | |
-There's more work to be done. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:14 | |
-We benefit a lot -from being in a show like this. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
-We attend two or three every year. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
-It's a chance to exhibit -new products... | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
-..and retain people's interest. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
-We meet people who buy our products -and find out where it goes... | 0:09:33 | 0:09:37 | |
-..because they're sold -through wholesalers. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:40 | |
-How does Welsh produce compete -with global produce? | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
-I think people have realised -the quality of Welsh produce. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:49 | |
-Shows like this are great -for promoting the produce. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
-Join us after the break as -Alun attends an important event... | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
-..about safeguarding the farm -from burglars. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
-. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:08 | |
-Subtitles | 0:10:13 | 0:10:13 | |
-Subtitles - -Subtitles | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
-In Part 1, safeguarding farm incomes -was the talking point. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:22 | |
-Alun is more concerned -with safeguarding farm property. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:26 | |
-Do you have a plan on your farm -to ensure that your cattle, sheep... | 0:10:27 | 0:10:32 | |
-..tractors and even your gates are -safe from the clutches of burglars? | 0:10:33 | 0:10:38 | |
-I'm visiting Aberystwyth -University's Trawsgoed farm... | 0:10:39 | 0:10:43 | |
-..where best practice for -securing property is being shown. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:47 | |
-According to NFU Mutual statistics -for March 2017... | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
-..cattle thefts from farms has more -than doubled compared to last year. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:57 | |
-This Farming Connect event -is both timely and important. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:03 | |
-We're here at Trawsgoed, one of the -Farming Connect innovation sites. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:08 | |
-Basically, something was stolen. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
-It started us off -on the conversation... | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
-..of how can you improve security. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
-You start to spot the mistakes -and look for holes in the system. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:21 | |
-We played detective -and we have an open day... | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
-..to allow other people -to do the same... | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
-..and learn messages from here -that they can take home. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
-One of the day's elements -is a tour of the farm... | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
-..to show potential weaknesses. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
-It's led by Arfon Griffiths -from Larymau Dyfed. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
-We arrived here earlier... | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
-..and left some items in the more -general parts of a farm. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:49 | |
-For example, trailers being left -close to the farmyard entrance. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:53 | |
-The trailers were left unlocked. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
-One of the trailers -was loaded with a bike. | 0:11:56 | 0:12:00 | |
-It showed how easy it would be for a -4x4 to come in, take the trailer... | 0:12:00 | 0:12:05 | |
-..without anyone noticing. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
-How difficult or easy is it -for farmers to solve those problems? | 0:12:09 | 0:12:15 | |
-It's very easy. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
-Locks for trailers -cost as little as 20. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:23 | |
-It's a fraction of the cost -of losing that trailer. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:27 | |
-It's a simple solution -that saves a lot of money. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
-Lisa Jones from Shearwell Data -is also attending today. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:36 | |
-You're here to promote animal -safety through new EID technology. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:42 | |
-The new EID technology -incorporates these boluses. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:47 | |
-This is a sheep bolus. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:51 | |
-Farmers are using boluses to -safeguard their most valuable stock. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:58 | |
-They help prevent people -stealing those animals. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
-The boluses are a deterrent -to stop them stealing the animals. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:07 | |
-What's the difference between -both options for the farmer? | 0:13:07 | 0:13:12 | |
-There are two tags, -one yellow and one visual. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
-There's also a black tag and bolus. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
-The black tag and bolus cost 2.50. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
-That's more than the tags -the company already has. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
-Only the black tag -is needed in the sheep's ear... | 0:13:25 | 0:13:29 | |
-..because the black tag -replaces the visible tag... | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
-..and the bolus replaces -the yellow tag in the other ear. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:39 | |
-This tank has been locked -from the outside. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
-This lock is easily broken. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
-Charles Lamb, you're one -of the exhibiters here today. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:52 | |
-You've brought your equipment -with you - what is this? | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
-This locks trailers -being pulled behind a tractor. | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
-There are also smaller locks for -trailers behind a Land Rover or van. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:06 | |
-This is made from stainless steel. -It's really difficult to break. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:12 | |
-You're a farmer but you've started -your own security business. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:17 | |
-Yes. I started from scratch -making these. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:22 | |
-I have a keen interest -in solving problems. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
-When I'm on the farm, -I look around and think... | 0:14:26 | 0:14:30 | |
-.."How can I make this better, -safer or easier?" | 0:14:30 | 0:14:35 | |
-Stealing stock -has featured heavily in the news... | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
-..and recently, Dyfed Powys Police -used DNA technology... | 0:14:39 | 0:14:43 | |
-..to prosecute a sheep thief. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:45 | |
-Two years ago, 50 sheep were stolen -from a farm in Gwynfe, Llangadog. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:51 | |
-As is normal in such cases, we had -little evidence to help the case... | 0:14:53 | 0:15:00 | |
-..but fair play to the farmer, -he did a lot of research... | 0:15:00 | 0:15:04 | |
-..and saw that 20 sheep -were being sold in Llanybydder... | 0:15:04 | 0:15:09 | |
-..about 10-14 days after the theft. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
-He contacted the farmers who bought -them, who were totally blameless. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:18 | |
-When the lambs were born, blood -samples were taken from the lambs... | 0:15:19 | 0:15:23 | |
-..blood samples were taken -from the farmer's rams... | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
-..which hadn't been used -on any other sheep... | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
-..and it was proven -that nine of the fifteen lambs... | 0:15:31 | 0:15:35 | |
-..were related to Mr Price's rams. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
-It showed that his rams -were the mothers... | 0:15:38 | 0:15:42 | |
-..of the sheep that had been stolen. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:45 | |
-What was the feedback -from today's event? | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
-There have been thefts in this area. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
-We haven't been directly affected -by thefts on the farm... | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
-..but we have to be far -more vigilant. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
-There's a potential for people -from other areas to visit our farms. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:03 | |
-We have to make sure that we keep -our farms as secure as possible. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:10 | |
-How important is it for farmers -to contact the police... | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
-..to tell them what happens locally, -even if it seems irrelevant? | 0:16:14 | 0:16:19 | |
-It's very important - -there are two important aspects. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
-Farmer must tell us -when something is stolen... | 0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | |
-..and if they have information -about the thieves... | 0:16:26 | 0:16:31 | |
-..they need to transfer -that information to the police... | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
-..and tell us where it's being done -and how it's being done. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:38 | |
-Without that information, it's -difficult to do something about it. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
-According to -recently published figures... | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
-..profits from pig farming -have decreased 56% in England. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
-Is the situation different in Wales? | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
-The Welsh pig sector is small -compared to our neighbours... | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
-..but according -to recent figures... | 0:17:03 | 0:17:07 | |
-..the sector contributed 7m -to Wales's agricultural output. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:12 | |
-Brinley Davies, -Penlan Farm, Talsarn, Lampeter... | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
-..has kept pigs for almost 50 years. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
-There are less pigs around now -than there were years ago. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:23 | |
-Everyone kept 10-12 sows years ago, -back in the 1960s and 1970s. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:29 | |
-These days, farmers only keep -a small number of pigs. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
-How difficult is it -to keep pigs in Wales? | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
-We feed them from a bag - -it's different to cattle and sheep. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:41 | |
-They eat silage and grass, -pigs don't. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
-You don't need to feed pigs as much -now, the genetics have improved. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:50 | |
-They need less food now -to produce the same amount of meat. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
-What are your greatest costs? | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
-Hay costs about 96 a tonne. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
-Feed is 240. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:06 | |
-Those are our main costs. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
-We're not too bad -with vet costs for the pigs. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:13 | |
-We buy iron -and the odd bottle of Penicillin... | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
-..in case a pig goes lame. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
-Carwyn and I do all the work. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
-We also spend on diesel for -the Kramer to clean out the sheds. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |
-The Kramer is used -for these two sheds... | 0:18:26 | 0:18:29 | |
-..but we clean out the other shed -by hand because it's an old shed. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:33 | |
-That's where the costs go. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:35 | |
-If we paid labour at 10 an hour, -the profits would disappear. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:40 | |
-You'd need someone for two hours -a day and that's 20 gone. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:44 | |
-20 a day is a lot. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
-What's the answer -for the pig sector in Wales? | 0:18:47 | 0:18:51 | |
-In a meeting the other day... | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
-..they were telling people -to keep more pigs. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
-If I'm going to keep more pigs... | 0:18:57 | 0:18:59 | |
-..is the trade going to drop again? | 0:18:59 | 0:19:02 | |
-People should be buying locally. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
-They should be buying food produced -in their county and country. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:09 | |
-It's better than importing food -from other countries... | 0:19:09 | 0:19:14 | |
-..such as Danish bacon. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:16 | |
-Brinley and his son, Carwyn, -have exhibited their pigs in shows. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:21 | |
-They won first prize in last year's -Winter Fair on their first attempt. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:26 | |
-They keep 200 pigs on the farm... | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
-..and they have a contract -to supply local butcher Rob Rattray. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:34 | |
-I depend on him, he depends on me. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
-He pays me a fair price -so I can't complain about the price. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
-I sympathise with farmers who have -to sell cheaply to slaughterhouses. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:47 | |
-They only get about 1.55-1.60 -per kilo. That's dead weight. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:53 | |
-Is it possible to make money -like that? | 0:19:53 | 0:19:56 | |
-The profits are lower. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:58 | |
-Apart from Rob, how difficult is it -to find a market for your pigs? | 0:19:58 | 0:20:04 | |
-Terribly difficult. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:06 | |
-If I relied on the marts, -I would have packed it in. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:10 | |
-You're up and down, -you don't know where you are. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:14 | |
-You can have one good mart, -one bad mart. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
-In one month, -you can sell a sow for 50. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
-The following mart, -you can get 150-200. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
-Why does that happen? | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
-I don't know - -they say there's no export on them. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
-I don't know why, I can't tell you. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
-Brinley sends his pigs -to Rob Rattray's processing unit. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:39 | |
-Rob has been a butcher -for almost 40 years. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:45 | |
-What changes has he seen -in the pig sector? | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
-More meat is imported from Europe, -Dutch and Danish bacon. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
-A lot more comes in. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
-There are fewer pig farmers -in Wales as a result. | 0:20:56 | 0:21:00 | |
-It's one sector that might benefit -from Brexit... | 0:21:00 | 0:21:05 | |
-..not that -I want to see it happening. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
-It might help pig farmers -because less bacon will be imported. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:13 | |
-Is it difficult for you, -as someone who sells local meat... | 0:21:13 | 0:21:17 | |
-..to compete with cheaper imports? | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
-It's impossible to compete -with them on price... | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
-..but Brinley supplies me -with pigs every week. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
-They're slaughtered -at the abattoir in Tregaron. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
-Everything is processed -in this unit and sold in the shop. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:36 | |
-I pay the same price -throughout the year. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:40 | |
-I know how much the pigs -will cost... | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
-..and I try and keep the price -the same each week for the customer. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:48 | |
-I pay more to Brinley for the pigs -to keep him in business. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
-He's been keeping pigs -for almost 50 years. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
-I want to keep him in business -and I want his pigs every week. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
-I want him to know where he stands. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
-I have the same quality of pigs -throughout the year. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:05 | |
-The bacon and sausages are slightly -more expensive in the shop... | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
-..than the Dutch bacon... | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
-..but last weekend -I had a customer from Hull... | 0:22:13 | 0:22:16 | |
-..and he wanted to take 30lbs -of bacon back to Hull with him. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
-He said it was the tastiest bacon -he'd ever tried. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
-It's worth paying -that little bit extra for quality. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
-Finally, from pigs to hens. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:36 | |
-Cabinet Secretary Lesley Griffiths -announced... | 0:22:36 | 0:22:40 | |
-..that bird flu controls -would be lifted on April 30... | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
-..although there is a temporary -suspension on some bird gatherings. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:50 | |
-Wales' chief veterinary officer -emphasised... | 0:22:50 | 0:22:53 | |
-..that all poultry owners -should remain vigilant... | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
-..and keep an eye out -for signs of the disease... | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
-..and contact their vets -if they have any concerns. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
-If you have any suspicions, contact -the Animal and Plant Health Agency. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:12 | |
-That's all for this week. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
-Join us again next week. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
-Until then, from the NEC -in Birmingham, cheerio to you all! | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
